Problem you are trying to solve

• Navigating the message list on thunderbird-android using TalkBack is cumbersome, because TalkBack users have to perform multiple swipes to get to the next or previous message in the message list.
• If a TalkBack user needs to perform an action on a message in the message list, like delete, they have to long press on a message and then find the buttons to perform a desired action. And if the user wants to move or copy a message, they have to long press on it, then find the "more options" button, where they will find the options to move or copy the message. This becomes tedious and reduces efficiency.

Suggested solution

• When navigating through the message list, TalkBack should only focus on the message and not on buttons like "Select". The message and the visible buttons should be added to content groups and buttons like "Select" should be added as an accessible action
• Consolidate all the available actions for a message in TalkBack actions. To access TalkBack actions for a particular element, open any app that supports TalkBack actions (like Gmail). Then focus on an element that has TalkBack actions (like a message). Later, swipe up or down on the screen using one finger to hear all the available actions and double tap to perform that action.
